Does Elie Wiesel Deserve The Holocaust

Elie Wiesel: The Great Humanitarian Elie Wiesel Elie Wiesel was born and raised in Sighetu Marmatiei,Romania until 1944,where he and his family were separated in Auschwitz,and that is where his mother,sisters, grandmother had died. Also while he was there Wiesel had to overcome Death of his family members, Starvation, and. Abuse. These adversities made Elie Wiesel become the man he is today; he is truly a humanitarian. Wiesel had to overcome the death of his family members.

In conclusion, Elie Wiesel is a Holocaust survivor that delivers his effective speech on effects of indifference and makes sure the audience is aware coming into this new century. He uses facts from his history multiple time to back up his purpose. Furthermore, he leaves the audience with sympathy due to his history, but his ambition was to act as an admonition towards all the American people; that we should not only focus on what’s affecting our nation but to look over those who are on the verge of suffering. Not to mention that Wiesel’s message can be reflected as a reminder for today’s generation to prevent history from repeating.

Elie Wiesel was a writer who won the Nobel Peace Prize and was also a Holocaust survivor. Wiesel has written many books but his most famous is “Night” where he describes his experiences during the Holocaust where he survived living in the concentration camps. His book Night has been translated into over 30 languages and has sold millions of copies . Elie Wiesel was born on September 1928 in Sighet, Romania. Elie grew up with his mother, father, and three sisters in the town of Sighet.

Elie Wiesel was very important person, Elie was a survivor of the Holocaust. He was one of the few that wanted to share the story, to let the world know what happened. He has shared his experience of the tragedy in many ways, he given speech, met with world leaders, and wrote books that millions of people have read. He changes thoughts, the way things look to people.

The Holocaust was a horrible time in the 1940s. Hitler the leader of the Nazi’s had an idea of just having the perfect people which was having blonde hair and blue eyes. Hitler's plan was to kill the people who didn’t have these appearances. Hitler would do this by creating concentration camps that would torture, kill people in many ways which for example burning, starving them to death. In the book Night a book Elie Wiesel a Holocaust survivor wrote, talks how Elie survived those terrible times.

In a span of 10 years, the Holocaust killed over 7 million people, that’s just as much as the population of Hong Kong. In the book Night, by Elie Wiesel, Wiesel shares his experience on how he survived the Holocaust and what he went through. How he dealt with the horrors and even to how he felt of his dad’s death and how he saw himself after it was all over. As he tried to publish it he was constantly turned down due to the fact of how horrid and truful it was. He still tried and tried until it was finally published.

Nicholas Winton was a normal man living life until he found out what Germany was doing to all Jewish people. After he found out what Nazis were doing because of Hitler he knew that in Britain, people were trying well working on saving the Jewish children that were from Germany and Austria. The mission was called Kindertransport. He also realized that no one was trying or working on saving the children from Czechoslovakia. Winton started to organize a rescue operation to save them.

The old man encourages us to take a risk, because if we do it, we may find the luck in it. Who knows? It can be happen though. His another bravery is showed when the old man fight with the marlin.

It has been said that “Silence gives posthumous victory to Hitler.” Posthumous means “after death.” People may be indifferent to this subject now that they see it is long over, but if that is how people think, then Hitler may have won afterall. If people are silent then others will forget. If people forget, then they will no longer know the terrors the Holocaust has caused.

“No human race is superior; no religious faith is inferior. All collective judgments are wrong. Only racists make them,” said Elie Wiesel. The Holocaust took place during 1933 to 1945 primarily in Germany and Poland, but later spread to other areas of Europe. The Holocaust was deemed the persecution of millions of races, consisting mostly of Jewish families.

The purpose of this research paper is to compare and contrast Elie Wiesel and Susan B. Anthony, and their collective contributions, especially to the human rights movement and history. To this extent, I should first like to pro-offer some biographical information as well as background as it relates to the two. Elie Wiesel survived the Holocaust, wrote poetry, received the Nobel Peace Prize, and he was a political activist. When Elie Wiesel delivered the speech “The Perils of Indifference,” he was already a recognized authority of political action and peace. In his speech, Wiesel describes himself as a trustworthy messenger.
